More vottaberkel from TheBloodyPulpit:
1. Union Sacre is a new wnry for me. Started in PasoRobles by Philip Muzzy & Xavier Arnaudin.The claim to be inspired by the wines of Alsace. This wine didn't speak particularly of Alsace to me. They make an interesting range of wines & I will probably try more of them.
